Corrected WBC Count
Corrects the total leukocyte count for the presence of nucleated red blood cells (nRBCs) seen on the peripheral smear.
Calculate
—
Corrected WBC count (×10³/µL)
Corrected WBC = (Uncorrected WBC × 100) ÷ (100 + nRBC per 100 WBC)

Absolute Reticulocyte Count & Reticulocyte Production Index
Converts a reticulocyte percentage into an absolute count and, using the patient's hematocrit, an RPI that reflects true marrow response to anemia.
Calculate
—
Absolute reticulocyte count (×10³/µL) · Normal: 25–75 ×10³/µL
—
Reticulocyte Production Index (RPI) · RPI > 3 suggests adequate marrow response; RPI < 2 suggests inadequate response
Absolute Retic = (Retic % ÷ 100) × RBC count RPI = [Retic % × (Patient Hct ÷ 45)] ÷ Maturation Correction Factor

RBC Indices — MCV, MCH, MCHC
Calculates the three red cell indices from hemoglobin, hematocrit and RBC count — the core of anemia classification.
Calculate
—
MCV (fL) · Normal 80–100
—
MCHC (g/dL) · Normal 32–36
MCV = (Hct ÷ RBC) × 10 | MCH = (Hb ÷ RBC) × 10 | MCHC = (Hb ÷ Hct) × 100

Anion Gap
Used to help classify metabolic acidosis into high anion-gap vs. normal anion-gap categories.
Calculate
Anion Gap = Na⁺ − (Cl⁻ + HCO₃⁻) | Normal range: 8–16 mEq/L
🦴
Corrected (Albumin-Adjusted) Calcium
Adjusts total serum calcium for low albumin, since roughly 40% of calcium circulates bound to albumin.
Calculate
—
Corrected calcium (mg/dL) · Normal: 8.5–10.5 mg/dL
Corrected Ca = Measured Ca + 0.8 × (4.0 − Serum Albumin)
🧮
Creatinine Clearance (Cockcroft-Gault)
Estimates creatinine clearance as a marker of glomerular filtration rate.
Calculate
—
Estimated creatinine clearance (mL/min) · Normal: ~90–120 mL/min
CrCl = [(140 − Age) × Weight(kg) × (0.85 if female)] ÷ (72 × Serum Creatinine)
Educational estimate only — not a substitute for clinical judgment or a validated eGFR equation.

Calculated Serum Osmolality & Osmolar Gap
Estimates serum osmolality from sodium, glucose and BUN, and compares it against a measured value if available.
Calculate
—
Calculated osmolality (mOsm/kg) · Normal: 275–295
—
Osmolar gap · Normal < 10 mOsm/kg
Osmolality = 2 × Na⁺ + (Glucose ÷ 18) + (BUN ÷ 2.8)
📏
Body Surface Area & BMI
Two common anthropometric calculations — BSA (Mosteller formula) is used for drug dosing references; BMI screens for weight categories.
Calculate
BSA (Mosteller) = √[(Height cm × Weight kg) ÷ 3600] BMI = Weight(kg) ÷ Height(m)²
